Queen "News of the World". Some of the tracks are flat, but half of the tracks are truly breath taking. "Get Down, Make Love" is worth the price alone. Interestingly, Queen's "A Night at the Opera" is a real turd. Sounds like a really flat and poorly engineered master tape (not MFSL's fault; but I question why they ever would have released this title. Same for the Moody Blues "On the Threshold of a Dream". ) Also, Todd Rundgren's double disc "Something...Anything" has exceptional engineering, production, and mastering. Happy Tunes!
One of the best sounding MFSL cd's I've ever heard is Harry Nilsson: Nilsson Schmilsson. Other excellent ones are - Joe Jackson: Night and Day, The Allman Brothers: Live at The Fillmore East, Bob Marley: Catch A Fire, Miles Davis: Kind of Blue, Steve Winwood: Arc of a Diver, The Who: Who's Next, Bob Dylan: Highway 61 Revisited, Duke Ellington and Louie Armstong: The Summit, and U2: War. Just to name a few!
Personally owning every single MFSL CD ever pressed it's a tough decision to say what are my favorites. Here's top 10.
1. Dave Grisman-Hot Dawg (UltraDisc I) 2. Joe Jackson- Will Power (UltraDisc I) 3. The WHO- Who's Next (Ultra Disc II) 4. Jazz Sampler- JS1 Various Artists (1st Ultra Disc I ever pressed) 5.Elton John- MadMan Across the Water (UltraDisc I) 6.Pink Floyd- The Wall (UltraDisc I) 7." " - Dark Side of Moon (Ultra Disc I) 8.Classical Sampler- CS-1 (Ultra Disc I) 9.Steely Dan- Aja (UltraDisc I) 10.Sonny Rollins- Way out West (1st CD ever pressed by MFSL in "aluminum" circa 1984)
Pink Floyd - DSOTM Jean Michele Jarre - Equinoxe RUSH - Moving Pictures Sting - Nothing Like The Sun Sting- Dream of the Blue Turtles The Police - Synchronicity John Lee Hooker - The Healer Eric Clapton - Slowhand
I have around 100 MoFi gold cd's but those above are my favorites.
